• initial study of single muons and pions in the regions of interest for CLFV
• Andrew will work on:
  • identifying events where muons don't leave any tracks or energy in the detector
  • set basic cuts that could identify muons and exclude pions and run the same algorithm over MinBias events to see how well it does rejecting non-muon backgrounds
  • look at pT distributions for the MinBias events and single muons to see differences

1 Single muon sims
